She just seems real listless. Anything I can do in the meantime?

I would take her in for an examination for pyometra IMMEDIATELY.

If she has closed pyometra, which is what this sounds like, she will die if you don't get it taken care of ASAP.

It is the worst thing that could happen to a bitch, health-wise.
